My head is spinning from the number of new recipes we have tried in the first month since starting our modified Traditional Foods diet for reversing tooth decay! It's been tough, I admit. There is something about that moment though, when you hit the jackpot with a recipe that just works. When the kids ask for seconds. It's a great feeling! I'm looking forward to more of those...

This Millet Leek Cakes are my adaptation from the very talented Susan at The Urban Baker. My non-food blogger version is a little more simple and omits the kale that we don't really care for in this instance, but pretty much with the same absolutely-delicious-I-want-one-more results. My favorite thing? They are very portable and work with any meal. Breakfast, lunch, dinner - it goes with everything! It can be a side, a stand-in for meat, part of a breakfast. Another bonus? It's just so kid friendly! They love holding their own millet cake and nibbling on it, it isn't too crumbly and easy to hold.

After I cooked the millet and used 3 cups in the recipe, there were some left overs. The next morning I added a cup of organic apple sauce and cinnamon, set it to simmer, and the kids devoured it for a quick breakfast!

1. To cook the millet, add 2 cups water and 1 cup millet to sauce pan. Add pinch of seal salt, bring to simmer and cover for 15 to 20 minutes until water is absorbed. Remove cover, fluff with fork, set aside. (this yields slightly more than you'll need for the recipe).

If you make this recipe, we would love to know what you served it with or if you put a different spin on it! If you adapt this recipe and post it on your own blog, please link to Eco-Babyz, we would appreciate it :)
